Very nice, excellent breakfast but the bed was a bit hard for us

This was a lovely place to stay. The room was beautifully decorated as was the en-suite which was modern and stylish. There was no road noise and black out curtains ensured the room was dark. The proprietor was friendly as well as incredibly helpful. Breakfast was excellent with many options available. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

The room was perfect. Comfortable beds and linen crisp and fresh. Sian was an exceptional host, friendly and attentive. Breakfast was excellent and all we could ask for. What a find! Beats a travelodge hands down!!!

Nice host. Great breakfast. Great location.

The initial greeting, onsite parking was easy, rooms were spotlessly clean and very comfortable beds, especially the pillows!

Cosey and comfortable with the breakfast of kings. Sian is a delightful host.

Met and made comfortable and useful use of fridge - everything explained and host took interest in what we were doing. Attentive to needs even adapted breakfast and brought dairy free milk

My stay at Avonlea was very welcoming, room was comfortable. Sian was very helpful with information about the area, even though I stayed only one night, I did manage to have a Quick Look around the town, which was a few minutes away, so very convenient. There was a good choice for breakfast, nicely presented, very homely, and attention to detail.

A wonderful stay. Friendly host with nice accommodations. A full English breakfast to get started with our day. Everything we needed.

How can this place be described an Exceptional, have none of the previous guests stayed anywhere else. Our room 3 could not have been any smaller with the tiniest en suite. Breakfast was fine and room was clean but exceptional never.

Service was wonderful!

Sian was so kind and welcoming, she did everything she could to make us comfortable, adding a fan to the room and providing cold water on a very warm night. Lovely breakfast, a really clean and comfortable home.

Really enjoyed my stay. The accommodation and breakfast were top rate. The host was so helpful and kind

Booked at short notice as we needed somewhere to stay in Banbury whilst we helped our daughter move. Sian was very helpful as we were unsure when we would be able to check in and offered us extra arrangements if we arrived later in the day. A warm welcome, a lovely room and breakfast was superb. Sian also gave us some pieces of her lovely flapjack to take with us when we returned to Leamington Spa to continue unpacking for the house etc. We are spoilt by living in a quiet cul-de-sac and I forgot my earplugs (and it was a warm night so we needed a window open) so I would just say there is some traffic noise through the night so do consider taking earplugs if you are a very light sleeper but we would not hesitate to stay again.

I loved my stay for 3 nights! Sian is a perfect host, and my single room upstairs overlooking the back garden was very quiet, had a very comfortable bed, a chair, and plenty of spaces, surfaces, and hooks to put things in or on. I could sit in the breakfast room any time of the day if I wanted a table space for working on a laptop, and I was welcome to store items in the fridge. Delicious cooked breakfast of any version of a Traditional English you prefer, plus cereal, yoghurt, fruit, juices. Easy walking to excellent restaurants, pubs, Waitrose, the Town Centre, Lock 29 and Castle Quay, coach or rail stations. This lovely English guest house is a treasure!

Also a good location for the centre of Banbury

Great place to stay, breakfast was perfect and the host amazing,

Very cool and good

Spotlessly clean. Comfortable room. Friendly proprietor and excellent breakfast.

Wonderfully welcoming and friendly host, small but comfortable room, spotlessly clean with a modern bathroom. Great breakfast, even catered for Gluten Free. Easy walking distance to town with free parking, would always stay here and happy to thoroughly recommend.
